I looks like with the success of the Peppercorn "Tornado", An inquiry by David Wardale for those not in the know the consultant engineer for steam in China and the US. The proposal is to build a prototype which will equal the same horsepower per ton of a class 47 pulling 7 coaches while the 5 AT will pull 11 coaches. To bad the start up capital is 10 million to build this prototype.

New Cascades trains will be built in Wisconsin factory that will also build Talgo trainsets for that state's high-speed rail.

Trainsets are supposed to have wi-fi and roomier Business Class seats.

This could mean one of two things:

1.) The phasing out of ODOT Amtrak Thruway between Portland, Eugene, and intermediate points.

2.) Increased frequencies through the entire Eugene-Portland-Seattle-Vancouver system.

>>45910

Actually no. You're wrong.

You see what is actually going to happen is that the trainsets that are currently being used for the two round trips are going to be needed up north between Seattle and Portland, which is now going to 6 round trips up from four, with WSDOT saying "FUCK YOU, I WANT MY TRAINS BACK!!" to Oregon.

I dont honestly know...I think maybe the CBSA is going to go back to its usual bullshit. However, there is talk of BC buying two sets of Talgos, and even WSDOT buying 2 to 4 more sets...This is part rumor though...I also hear that BC and Vancouver liked having the second train, but Ottawa doesnt want to necessarily play ball.

Its going to be fun...

ODOT expects their trains to come in around 2012. They likely don't believe in ancient Mesoamerican prophecies. They also think that White Boxcar Factory north of Portland Union Station is just peachy-keen.

Pic relevant, because Talgos are going to be built by cheeseheads.

There are some purists who reckon she should be painted in British Railways colours because she was rebuilt with the double funnel after nationalisation, so never appeared with the double funnel in LNER livery during her working days.

Several historical groups have already put there bids in the trains from Kiddie Land.
Although, Kiddie Land did get the rights and the blueprints of the trains, back in the '80s or the '90s I don't know how that shook out since the park closed.

Would be neat if they mass produced these trains again, even though the steam locomotive is a one off design.

It was probably also because the ATSF was the closest railroad to Disneyland in Anaheim, and the Santa Fe wanted to capitalize on Disneyland travel via their San Diegan route.

Now you can either take the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner or Metrolink.
